No matter which application or feeder, you will find everything that you require for switching, protecting or starting of loads in our SIRIUS family of products. Products for monitoring and controlling, detecting, commanding, signaling and supplying round off the spectrum.

With Totally Integrated Automation our product portfolio can be bundled to optimized systems. In combination with SENTRON switching devices and SIVACON power distribution boards, busway systems and cubicle systems for efficient low-voltage energy distribution, SIRIUS industrial controls deliver the global standard for trailblazing solutions.

SIRIUS: Soft starters

Our communicative SIRIUS Motor Starters are the right choice when setting up a Motor Control Center (MCC): In numerous applications, soft starting and ramp-down are a real alternative to direct or star/delta starting, both technically and economically. Unpleasant side effects such as mechanical shocks in the machine or voltage dips in the power supply can be specifically avoided by using soft starters. The range of SIRIUS soft starters covers all standard and high-feature applications of motor starting up to 250 KW.

Especially from Siemens: Via a Profibus DP module the soft starter of the SIRIUS product family can be easily integrated into the process automation.

Our matched and powerful components help you to considerably reduce your investment costs and risks. You will benefit from the components’ modularity and intelligence over the complete utilization period and thus keep a tight control of your operating costs while exploiting maximum system availability.

SIVACON Switchboard

As part of Totally Integrated Power, we offer our SIVACON S8 switchboard and busbar trunking system 8PS as well as the SENTRON switching, protection and measuring units at the low-voltage level. The type-tested SIVACON systems ensure safe operation with a high degree of plant and operator protection. In addition, the SIVACON busbar trunking system LR has been proven as an optimum and safe means of power conveyance in corrosive wastewater atmospheres. Further positive features of the SIVACON busbar trunking systems are high short-circuit resistance and the modular design of the tap-off units.

SENTRON: Switches, Switchgear and Metering Devices

Whether intelligent circuit breakers, tried-and-tested switch disconnectors or innovative multifunction measuring devices – the SENTRON range provides all components required for efficient, safe and reliable power distribution. Featuring a consistently modular design and equipped with comprehensive accessories, the SENTRON range systematically caters to today’s requirements in terms of versatility and flexibility.

The modular and compact SENTRON circuit- breakers 3WL (ACB) or 3VL (MCCB) handle the switching and protection functions in the SIVACON systems. Switching statuses and triggering can be conveniently integrated into the total power distribution and automation concepts via PROFIBUS DP or Ethernet.

With the innovative SENTRON PAC3200 Power Monitoring Device with integrated Ethernet interface standard, which can be connected to a wide range of different loads, it is possible to measure electrical parameters and energy extremely precisely. By using an optional expansion module, the device can be integrated into any power management system or into PROFIBUS-based automation systems for further processing of the data.
